I was thinking that we would never find an office supply company as good as our last one when they went bankrupt last year. I knew that none of the other local office supply companies could even come close to their prices and I was not willing to pay anymore than what I was used to.
My secretary suggested that we search for a company on the internet. I figured that it was worth a try and started looking for companies that sell office supplies for great reasonable prices. I found two that looked to be very promising but one of them did not ship to my state. The other online office supplies company that I found seemed to have great prices and they shipped to my state so it seemed like there would be no problems with using them.
The first order that we got from the new office supply company, came on time and their prices actually beat my old company by about ten percent. Ten percent is not a lot but since it was lower than what I had been paying, I was very happy with it.
I was glad to find someone that gave me a great deal so I would not have to use any of the high priced local office supply stores that automatically assumed that I would just switch to one of them when my company went out of business.
